Tidal radius of IC 10
- Dwarf irregular galaxy- Recent and strong star formation the only local group
(LG) analog of starburst galaxies
- previous : rt ≤ 10’ Massey & Armandroff (1995) : D ∼ 7’ Jarrett et al. (2003) : D ∼ 6’ Tikhonov & Galazutdinova (2009) : thick disk, minor axis ~
10.5’ Demers et al. (2004) : halo D ∼ 30’- HI cloud : covers > 1° (62’ x 80’)
- This study : red giant (RG) stars at r = 18’ – 23’ excess of stars (compared to model) at r = 34’ – 42’

Different apparent colors of RGB stars differential reddening W, RGB ridge line estimate in Subaru data S4, blue field stars’ ridge line estimate in CFHT data along the semimajor axis : E(B-V) = 0.78 ± 0.10 Subaru data regions : constant at E(B-V) = 0.63 ± 0.10 CFHT data regions : similar (E(B-V) = 0.63 ± 0.10) or smaller (E(B-V) = 0.40 ± 0.10)

Radial extent of IC 10
- Significantly underestimated!
- Subaru data r > 18’ – 23’- CFHT data probably D > 1°
